Refimprove date January 2009 SpoT is a bacterial protein that Hydrolysis hydrolizes alarmone s, p ppGpp , in the bacterial stringent response . Its hydrolase activity is Mn2 dependent with a conserved His Asp HD motif. In E coli, SpoT protein consistent of 693 amino acids. SpoT is belongs to the RSH protein family. It is bifunctional, has both hydrolase and synthase activities. When relA is deleted, E coli still can produce p ppGpp by SpoT. SpoT can sense many sources of nutrient stress other than amino acid starvation and to respond by limiting hydrolase. The acyl carrier protein ACP binds to the TGS domain of SpoT and this binding is probably influenced by the ratio of unacylated ACP to acylated ACP in the cell. Fatty acid starvation lead to a shift in the balance of the two SpoT actvities in favor of synthesis. Phosphate starvation is sensed by SpoT hydrolase to elevate p ppGpp, which induces IraP, a RssB antiadaptor that antagonizes RssB activation of RpoS turnover, thereby inducing RpoS.
